Figureheads of Canada’s alternative rock scene Sloan return to the East Coast for shows that include a Marquee Ballroom date on Friday, Dec. 7.
Touring with its critically acclaimed latest release 12 — which also happens to be its 12th album with the original Halifax-bred lineup still intact — the band has one of its strongest sets of songs to date with members Jay Ferguson, Patrick Pentland, Chris Murphy and Andrew Scott all contributing to the writing in equal measure. Catchy tracks like Spinning Our Wheels and The Day Will Be Mine show how Sloan has lost none of its power when it comes to songs that punch through the radio haze and leave their hooks in you long after they’re done.
Earlier this year, the band played a Marquee Ballroom set during the East Coast Music Awards Festival and Conference, and were presented with a Directors’ Special Achievement Award at the awards gala at Scotiabank Centre.
